Graph used right & built fast: Neo4j at HackwithBay 3.0
Blog post from Neo4j
At HackwithBay 3.0, held at the AWS Builder Loft in San Francisco, developers were challenged to create innovative solutions using Neo4j graph databases under the theme "Thoughtful Agents for Productivity." The event featured around 200 participants and resulted in approximately 50 submissions. The top three winning teams showcased unique applications that utilized Neo4j's capabilities effectively: VeriGraph transformed research papers into executable evidence by integrating claims and methods into a knowledge graph; Constructor served as an autonomous assistant for semiconductor research, dynamically evaluating techniques and updating a live graph with experiment results; and The Ultra Super Social Passport used the graph to connect event attendees based on shared interests and values. These projects highlighted the versatility and fast integration of Neo4j Aura in creating sophisticated, data-driven applications within a tight timeframe, supported by partners like RocketRide, Butterbase, and Daytona, which facilitated seamless integration and execution.
